Former Chargers LB Waters joins Saints

NEW ORLEANS -- The New Orleans Saints have signed free agent linebacker Anthony Waters.

Waters, who is entering his third season, spent two years in San Diego after being selected by the Chargers in the third round of the 2007 draft.
Saints general manager Mickey Loomis did not disclose terms of the agreement.

The 6-foot-3, 238-pound linebacker played in seven regular-season games, making three tackles on defense and three stops and a fumble recovery on special teams. He also played in one postseason game, recording a tackle.

The Chargers had high hopes for Waters but he never developed. Still, his release earlier this year was a bit surprising.
